CARDINAL GIBBONS AND AMERI-
CAN INSTITUTIONS.

The following is from the address
of Cardinal Gibbons as published in
the daily papers, on his taking pos
session of his titular church IN
Rome, March 25:
"For myself, as citizen of the
United States, and without closing
my eyes to our shortcomings as q
nation, / say with a deep sense Of
pride and gratitude that / belong to
country where the civil govern
ment holds over us the agis Of its
protection without interfering with
MS in the legitimate exercise OF our
sublime mission as ministers OF the
Gospel of Christ. Our country has
liberty without license, and authority
without despotism. She rears no
wall to exclude the stranger from
coming among us. She has lew
frowning Qualifications to repel the
invader, for she is at peace with oil
the world. She rests secure 10 the
consciousness of her strength and
her good will toward all. Her bar
bors are open to welcome the honest
immigrant who comes to advance
his temporal interests and find
peaceful home. But while we are
acknowledged to have a free govern
ment, perhaps we do not receive tbe
credit that belongs to us for having
also a strong government. Yes, onr
nation is strong, and her strength
lies, under the overriding guidance
of Providence, in the majesty ana
supremacy of the law, in the Loyalty
of her citizens, and in the affection
of people for her free institutions
"There are, indeed, grave social
problems now engaging the earnest
attention of the citizens OF tnS
United States; but | have no doubt
that, With Gods blessing, these
problems will be solved by the cain
judgment and sound sense OF the
American people without yiolenceoi
revolution or any injury to individual
right"
The able defence of the rights anu
demands of labor in this county,
and his outspoken American patrloF
ism, stamp Cardinal Gibbons as
true leader and representative o.
the Church and the Nation.

AN ANIMAL ARMY.

Marvellous invaders are the lem.
mings. They are near relatives of
the short.tailed field-mouse, and are
about five inches long, with round
heads, brown fur, and bead-like eyes.
Their home is in the highlands, or
fells, of the great central mountain
chain of Sweden and Norway, where
they build nests of grass for their
young. The Jennings are spiteful
little creatures when aroused, sitting
up on their hind legs and fighting
with a will. Not only are they
pugnacious, but extremely restless
and migratory as we'll; and every
five, ten, or twenty years they seem
possessed BY desire to see foreign
lands. 90 ~ af. .r3are
Thereupon, the one and all leave
their settlements and start out in
tens of thousands, overrun the cul.
tiyated tracts of land in both Nor
way and Sweden, and ruin the
plants and vegetation. They march
only at night, pressing on slowly in
one straight course, and allow moth
ing to disturb them. Birds and
various animals follow and prey
upon them; but, Notwithstanding
this, they actually increase in mum.
bers, gaining recruits as they adj.
vance. Rivers are swum and hills
crossed, until, finally, the Atlantic
or the Gulf of B0thnia is reached.

blind instinct that has led it on.
ward, the entire vast concourse
plunges into the sea, swimming on
ward, the little animals piling one
npon another as they are beaten
back, until at times their bodies
have formed veritable sea.wall.
Boatmen returning to the beach
have found their way obstructed by
a struggling horde that has just
reached the sea. The number of
Jennings in these bands is beyond
all computation. Sometimes the
march is kept up for three years be-
fore the water is reached.-FrOm

Terrible Surgical Operation
A FATAL MISTAKE.

The Cleveland (Ohio) Press, OF
February 23d, 1888, published an
account of a fatal surgical opera
ton which caused a great COM
motion among medical men
throughout the whole country,
DR., Thayer, the most eminentsur-
geon in Cleveland, pronounclng
it scandalous. 1t appears that a
Mrs. King had been suffering for
many years from some disease of
the stomach, which had resisted
the treatment of all the physic-
ians in attendance. The disease
commenced with aslight derange-
ment of the digestion, with a poor
appetite, followed by a peculiar
indescribable distress in the stom-
ach, a feeling that has been de-
scribed as a faint !" all gone" SEN
sation, a sticky slime collecting
about the teeth, causing a disa-
greeable taste. This sensation
was not removed by food, but,
on the contrary, it was increased.
After a while the hands and feet
became cold and sticky-a cold
perspiration. There was con-
slant tired and languid feeling.
Then followed a dreadful nerv-
BUSINESS, with gloomy forebod-
ings. Finally the patient was
unable to retain any food what
ever, and there was constant
pain in the abdomen. All pre-
scribed remedies failing to give
relief, a consultation was held,
when it was decided that the
patient had a cancer in the stom-
ach, and in order to save the
patients life an operation was
justifable. Accordingly, on the
22d of February, 1883, the OPP
Grafton was performed by DR..
Vance in the presence of DR.,
Tuckerman, DR.. Perrier, DR.
Arms, DR.. Gordon, DR.. Capner,
and DR.. Halliwell Of the Police
Board. The operation consisted
in laying open the cavity of the
abdomen and exposing the stom-
ach and bowels. When this had
been done an examination of the
organs was made, but to the hor-
ror and dismay of the doctors
there was no cancer to be found.
The patient did not have a can
Ger. When too late the medical
men discovered that they had
made a terrible mistake; but
they sewed the parts together
and dressed the wound that they
had made, but the poor woman
sank from exhaustion and died
in a few hours. How sad it must
be for the husband of this poor
woman to know that his wife
died from the effects of sur
gical operation that ought never
to have been performed. If this
woman had taken the proper
remedy for Dyspepsia and Ner-
vous Prostitution flor this was
what the disease really was, she
would have been living to-day,
SHAKER EXTRACT OF RooTs, OR
SMGEL's CURATIVE SYRUP, a rem
edy made expressly for Dyspep-
STA or Indigestion, has restored
many such cases to perfect health
after all other kinds of treatment
have failed. The evidence of its
efficacy in curing this class of
cases is too voluminous to be
published here but those who
read the published evidence in
favor of this dyspeptic remedy
do not question its convincing
nature, and the article has an
extensive sale.

the country owing to their competl-
ton with Russian industries. There
is besides the stronger reason that
the German residents of Russia are
trained soldiers, retaining their allie
glance to the home government and
IoyaI to all the interests of Germany.
In the event of war, which in Russia
Is never a remote contingency, it Is
feared that these German residents
might prove especially troublesome
and dangerous, being familiar with
the country, its topography, resourc-
es and strategic condition. These
are some Of the reasons, ut least,
which are given for the PRONUNCIATION
of the decree. The act has full as
much justice to support it as Prince
Bismarck order expelling the Rus
sian Poles from Silesia. Neither act
will increase the feeling of friendli-
ness between these two countries,
which is dangerously near the break
ing point already.

The BiterS Bitten.

Coffee has doubled in price at
wholesale in the last year, and the retail
price was advancing rapidly. This
was not owing to any adequate cause,
although a short crop in Brazil was
reported. Certain importers and
wholesalers formed a ring to control
the market, and they succeeded. As
a consequence of the corner, they
made hundreds of thousands of dol
lars. one firm alone clearing 5000 900,
it is said. These spectators and
gamblers overdid the thing, and now
the biters are bitten. Three of the
heavy New York coffee firms went by
the board on Monday with liabilities
of a million dollars. More will fol-
low, and the more the better. 1t APP
pears that even the banks in New
York city helped along this specula-
ton, which ran riot at the expense of
the whole country. If they should
be pinched by the coffee panic it
would serve them as they deserve.
1t is one of the alluring tendencies
of the times that speculation is draw
ing to its net more and more of the
great products of manufacture and
agriculture. Nothing is too sacred
for its Shiny touch. The bread of
millions and the merest fancy bauble
are alike swept into the maelstrom of
speculation. These constituencies
spectators would soon make distress
general but for the universal law that
greed, like ambition, overleaps it
self. The spectators get overload
ed, as was the case with the coffee
spectators. Prices can no longer be
sustained and down comes the fabric,
crushing all within it. 1t serves them
right. What is their loss is the pub
lie gain. The people who have been
robbed are robbed no onger.-Tele-

Salt water begins about 40 miles
below the city, but the real salt water
air is not reached until within 60
miles distance.
The Potomac, from its source in
the Alleghanies to its mouth at the
Chesapeake Bay, is 400 miles long.
For nearly half that distance, in
passing through the mountain region
north of this city, it is a comparative
" narrow stream but when it reaches
Alexandria, as l have said, it widens
out to about a mile and a half. In
its course to the sea, it gradually ex-
pands, until, at its mouth 1t forms a
broad estuary, seven and half miles
wide. This represents the width of
the river from Point Lookout to
Smiths Point, where it empties into
the Chesapeake Bay.
